Chapter 1: Lori Starts a House

"We own a very small piece of very dry land surrounded by beautiful mountains and the most amazing sunrises and sunsets."  

"(I see many more sunsets than sunrises!)"

The house is set for completion by March 1, 2005

"We are very excited about the whole experience ahead of us."

"Ron said that we are typical easterners that have moved west.  Clear the desert, make room for my new house and, oh yeah, throw in a pool too!"  

"But I can pretty much guarantee that he will have his very own lounging chair by the pool come next winter :-)"

Chapter 2: Lori Builds a House (and Ron Goes Swimming)

"We have the first walk-through tomorrow.  Of course Rick and I have no idea of what questions to ask.  Looks like a house, looks like a pool:-)  It's amazing how the whole neighborhood is coming along." 

Happy New Year! Love, Lori
